Default Brand spanking new car!!!!!!! First things first, what should I do with the interior?

Stupid drunk driver totaled my Rav 4 and I just picked up a 2016 Suburban LS!! OMG this bad boy is amazing!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! except the seats....I hate leather seats and my 'burban has cloth but I realized like 2 days after I got the suv how uncomfortable the cloth seats are. I wore shorts and my legs were itchy after about an hour into my drive. I'm located in Los Angeles and would love some ideas as to what to do with the seats. Any suggestions?




My new ride, he needs a name!!

Welcome to the forum.

Check out Katzkin leather. Expensive but very nice.

You may be able to find OEM ones at Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market

Lol you need new ones?! I just hopped into the middle seat to take off the headrests and noticed that they didn't even finish putting the upholstery on. This is my first American made car...is this normal?

Yes I for sure need new ones.

GM tends to reuse parts on similar type vehicles to save money. It is likely the "missing" part is for another vehicle like an SUV.

my old rav 4 was beat up. the interior was horrible. my dogs scratched at the seats, and i lent it to my mother for a few weeks and lord have mercy i dont know what she put in my car but jesus christ i'm glad it was totaled because i could NOT get the smell out of the seats and floor mats. NO ONE is allowed in this car until i get some weather techs and do something with the seats.

Should be able to fold them down, then pull up on a level behind them. The whole row should come up then.
